I was extremely suprised by that number until I realised that you were including Ultra Beasts, which are not legendary Pokemon no matter what you call them. That's like calling Mega Evolutions "legendary Pokemon." Ultra Beasts are something else.

We are not in agreement on that topic. 

...I don't understand. That's not an opinion. It doesn't matter if we don't "agree" lol.

They are common Pokemon just like a Butterfree or an Electabuzz, just from another demension. That's why there are so many Nihilego in the Ultra dimension. The only reason they are so powerful is because of their exposure to the Ultra Wormhole energy. Their natural stats are likely far more modest. It's the same thing that happens to Totem Pokemon and Lusamine. UBs are more powerful because they've been exposed to it longer. Same with Beast Boost. It's an unnatural side effect of extended exposure to the Ultra Wormhole. You know, like how Mega Evolution unnaturally powers up common Pokemon to legendary levels.

None of this is speculation. The game explicitely tells you this. Ultra Beasts aren't legendary Pokemon.
